... and it is more likely there will be a Triple Crown winner before the Orioles have a winning season.

Is there any chance this could be the 2yo that is/was trained by Aidan O'Brien this year?

I know there is a horse with the same name in the States.

Quite possibly. Jazil still stunk though.

The North American version of Achilles of Troy is REALLY flying, at least according to totay's Bloodhorse Journal:

"At Aqueduct, multiple stakes winner ACHILLES OF TROY (Notebook), who is on the comeback trail, worked five furlongs on a fast track in a bullet :48 2/5, the best of 10 works at the distance."

The rest of the 5-furlong works must have been dawdling if a mere 48 2/5 was good enough for a bullet. ;>)
